When a Hacker starts Making™

Help! I have a glob of filament stuck to my hotend.

This happens infrequently these days but it does happen. If it happens to me, it is probably going to happen to someone starting out. Here is a walk-through on how to clear your hotend that has a blob, glob, mass, molten ball of plastic or whatever you might call it.

This process will help you clear a Creality Ender 3, Ender 3 Pro, Ender 5, CR-10 or CR-10S and probably any Creality 3D Printer that uses FDM. The process would be similar on most FDM Printers.
